Chile Public Holidays 2025
Chile has 16 national public holidays in 2025, starting with New Year's Day on 1 January 2025 and ending with Christmas Day on 25 December 2025. Two well placed days of leave buy 8 days away from work in 2025, because two holidays sit exactly one working day from a weekend.

Frequently asked questions
How many public holidays does Chile have in 2025?
Chile has 16 national public holidays in 2025. The first is New Year's Day on 1 January 2025 and the last is Christmas Day on 25 December 2025.
What is the first public holiday of 2025 in Chile?

When is New Year celebrated in Chile in 2025?
In 2025, New Year's Day in Chile is on 1 January 2025.
Are regional holidays included for Chile?
No. This calendar lists national public holidays only, so it stays consistent across countries. Holidays that apply to just part of Chile are listed separately on the Chile holiday hub, together with the regions that observe them.
Do the Chile holiday dates change from 2025 to the next year?
Some of them do. Three of the 16 holidays in 2025 sit on a moving rule (linked to easter and equinox or solstice), so their date has to be recalculated for every year. The rest keep the same calendar date and only change weekday. Moving ones this year include Good Friday on 18 April 2025, Easter Sunday on 20 April 2025 and Indigenous People's Day on 20 June 2025.
How far ahead is the Chile calendar actually fixed?
Through 2027. The holidays are set in law rather than announced year by year, so the dates repeat predictably. What can still change is a law amendment, a one-off holiday declared for a national event, and the exact day of any holiday on the Islamic calendar, which is confirmed by moon sighting. No corrections to the underlying dataset were needed for Chile.
Which Chile holidays are regional, and which move?
The table above is the national calendar for 2025. Some holidays keep the same date every year while others are tied to Easter, to a lunar calendar or to a named weekday, and some parts of the country add their own days off. The Chile holiday hub breaks that down: which holidays are fixed, which move and why, and which ones are observed in certain regions only.

Knowing the dates is half the question. The other half is what they add up to: which of them create a long weekend and how many working days the year leaves. The 2025 worldwide overview compares every country on holiday count and weekend overlap, and the country index ranks all 44 of them. The same figures are available as JSON, and the dates as a calendar file.
